Hi, my name is Natalie...

....and I'm a 100 Board addict. Every day, as soon as I have a chance to get online, I go straight to the board. I read through all the questions whether there are only 17 or 45 that day. I'm not even a BYU student, so why do I care so much about lots of the questions that are submitted on the board? A lot of them don't have anything to do with me. They're fun to read, I guess...but why?

Before my brother left for the Czech Republic, he went to BYU for a couple semesters. While at BYU, he discovered the 100 hour board. He thought it was a really cool way to get questions answered, so he showed it to me one day. I thought it was pretty cool, but I didn't think too much about it. I read it a couple of times a month maybe, but I wasn't really into the board yet. But as soon as my brother left...

...I started to miss him. That's pretty normal. But to ease my feelings of loss, I started to read the board. It made me feel closer to him, in a way. So I would read the board occasionally. Then, when my brother's friend revealed that she was a writer for the board, I had to start reading it alot more to try and figure out which writer she was (I didn't figure it out, I made her tell me, but still...). After I figured it out, I just couldn't stop reading the board.

Then I decided that it was time to register. So, I registered, and started asking questions. And my obsession has grown from there...I can't stop reading the board. And that's why.
